One of the five is the LTSP server as well as a render node.  The other
4 are setup as local_app LTSP clients which have Maya installed and a
Spider daemon running (Spider is the distributed render control piece,
with the submission taking place on a Win32 box).  I made some small
tweaks to rc.local, such as using tmpfs instead of a ramdisk for /tmp
and doing swap over NFS via /dev/loop instead of patching the kernel.  I
compiled my own LTSP kernel using the RH 7.3 i686/SMP config.
